    The restaurant was not full, and we still had to wait 30 minutes with a reservation . They were trying to fill up every receipt at the table so Once we were finally seated, we sat another 30 minutes, waiting for a chef.

    We had to wait in line, regardless of the fact that we had a reservation. Staff was not friendly or attentive. Inside seemed rundown, dirty, and seem to lack adequate ventilation so there was quite an odor. Food was ehh

    All employees, except the hibachi chef were so unwelcoming,tired,and completely unprofessional. They couldn’t wait for us to leave. I still had food in my mouth when they brought me to go bag. Food like always is delicious, but sad to have employees like that.

    First time eating at Jo Jo’s. Food was very good. Service also was very good. Price is on the higher side. But we had a coupon that helped to reduce the cost. Will go back again.

    My family and I recently visited Jojo Japanese hibachi and sushi in Willowbrook il, first time visiting. Google review gave it a 4.2 out of 435 reviews. I reach out to celebrate the birthdays of my late sister who recently passed and my mother. I specifically mentioned this when making the reservation. Expecting staff to help make our experience special. We had a 3pm reservation, but despite no visible crowd, the service felt incredibly rushed throughout our meal. To make matters worse, and add insult to the bad experience. I asked for a to-go cup for my son's dr. Pepper and the server made an inappropriate remark about not putting alcohol in it. Not only was the assumption unwarranted, but it also felt odd and was unprofessional comment. Overall experience was incredibly disappointing, especially considering the special nature of the occasion and treatment as a person. I do not regret saying my family and I will not ever be returning to jo jo Japanese hibachi & sushi located at 7409 Kingery Hwy, Willowbrook, IL 60527.
